Full Terms of Service
Who are we?
These terms apply to your access to and use of all sites operated by or on behalf of Central Church and official Central Church entities, including its governing bodies, ministries, institutions, offices, programs, and other official related organizations, to the extent the sites post or link to these terms.
Your agreement with us
You represent that you are at least age 18 and have the power and authority to agree to these terms. These terms create a legal binding agreement between you and us and describe the rules of your use of our sites, including our websites, mobile applications, micro-sites, social media platforms, and other online and digital properties, content, products, services, software and applications. By browsing, accessing, linking, streaming, viewing, using or downloading information from the sites, you agree to these terms. If you are using the sites on behalf of another person, you represent that you are authorized to accept these terms on that person’s behalf. Additional specific terms or agreements may apply to certain sites, products or services or specific areas or features of our sites such as contests, events or promotions. If such terms or agreements conflict with these terms of service, the specific terms or agreements will prevail. We may change products or services offered on our sites, including changes to prices, at any time.
Modification of our terms
To accommodate new services and features on our sites and to ensure up-to-date compliance with applicable laws, we may modify our terms from time to time. When we modify our terms, we will notify you by posting on our sites. You must discontinue using our sites if you disagree with the modifications. Any changes will become effective as of the date of posting. We urge you to review these terms often so you are always fully informed.
Use by children
Most of our sites are not intended to be used by or designed to attract children under the age of 13 and may be used by children between ages 13 and 18 only with the approval of a parent or guardian. If any of our sites intend to be used by or are designed to attract children, they will include additional information regarding the applicable policies and practices for that site regarding children. If you are the parent or guardian and consent to your minor child’s access to and use of our sites, you agree to be bound by these terms on behalf of yourself and your child.
Accounts
You may have the opportunity on our sites to create a user account to participate in certain features of the site. If you create an account, you are responsible for maintaining your profile and using the settings available to protect the confidentiality of your profile user name, password and all other personal information. You are responsible for all uses of your account, whether or not you have authorized them. You agree to provide, maintain and update true, accurate, current, and complete information about yourself in the registration process. You may not impersonate any person or entity or misrepresent your identity or affiliation with any person or entity, including using another person’s username, password or other account information, or another person’s name, likeness, voice, image or photograph. You agree to promptly notify us of unauthorized use of your username, password, other account information or any other breach of security that you suspect or become aware of involving or relating to the sites. You also agree to exit your user account at the end of each session. Some of our sites may offer you the opportunity to register or log in using social media or other third-party services. We do not control such services and are not responsible for them. We fully disclaim all liability associated with them.
Your content
You may have the opportunity to post or upload, or have someone else post or upload on your behalf, content to our sites, content we will call “Your Content” in these terms. Your Content may include, for example, text, music, photos, videos, sounds, lyrics, messages, illustrations, files, images, graphics, comments, information, and other materials. You represent that Your Content is true and accurate and does not infringe the rights of any other person or entity or violate any laws and that you own or control all rights to the content necessary to post or upload it. To the extent the law allows, we reserve the right to reveal your identity or any other information we know about you if a complaint or legal action arises from Your Content. By posting or uploading Your Content to our sites, you are granting us an irrevocable, non-exclusive, transferable, sub-licensable, royalty-free, worldwide license to use Your Content in connection with the sites. If you become aware that Your posted or uploaded Content includes any material for which you lack the unrestricted right to grant us the rights set forth above, you agree to promptly notify us. You have no right to maintain or access Your Content on our sites and we have no obligation to return Your Content or otherwise make it available to you except as described in our Privacy Policy. We are not responsible for the timeliness, deletion, misdelivery or failure to store any of Your Content or personalization settings. We may freely use any feedback, suggestions or ideas you provide to us, and you grant to us a perpetual, worldwide, transferable, sublicensable, irrevocable, royalty free license to use such feedback in any way.
Posting agents
A posting agent is a third-party agent, service or intermediary that offers to post content on behalf of others. To moderate demands on our resources, you may not use a posting agent to post content on our sites without our written consent. Posting agents may not post content on behalf of others or access our sites to facilitate posting content on behalf of others without our written consent.
Paid postings
We may charge a fee for you to post content in some areas of our sites. The fee is an access fee permitting content to be posted in a designated area. You are responsible for the content you post and compliance with these terms. All fees paid are non-refundable in the event content is removed from our sites for violation of the terms.
Third-party content
Our sites may include content posted or uploaded by not only you but also other users of our sites, content we will call “User Content” in these terms. Unless our sites make clear otherwise, we do not claim ownership of User Content, and it does not necessarily express our views. Because it is not content we have posted or uploaded, we are not responsible for User Content and cannot verify its accuracy, timeliness, completeness or usefulness. We have the right, but not the obligation, to monitor, edit or delete User Content. Your use or reliance on User Content is at your own risk, and we are not responsible for it.
Public forums and interactive communications
Some of our sites offer public forums and other interactive communications. Please be aware that these features are public or may be subject to public access. Please use respect when you interact with others through our sites. You are responsible for the content you post and the consequences of posting the content, and your interactions with third parties through our sites. Such dealings are solely between you and such third parties. We urge you to be cautious about these interactions. Your use or reliance on such content is at your own risk, and we are not responsible for it. We reserve the right to remove without notice any posting or communication for any reason, but we have no obligation to delete content that you may find objectionable or offensive. Information and opinions expressed in public forums or other interactive communications by others are not necessarily ours.
User-posted events
Our sites may allow users to post events, meet-up opportunities, and other local happenings taking place outside of the sites. We do not supervise or control these events and are not involved in any way in the transportation to or actions or events that take place during any such event. Likewise, we are not responsible for any transactions, ticketing, payments or fees required or requested in connection with such events. We do not warrant or represent that the listings of events posted on the sites by users are accurate, complete, reliable, current or error-free. We encourage you to exercise caution in attending any such event. You attend such events at your own risk, and we are not responsible for any loss, injury or damage incurred as a result of your attendance at any such event.

Waiver of California Civil Code Section 1542 and similar laws
BY USING OUR SITES, YOU WAIVE ANY RIGHTS YOU MAY HAVE WITH RESPECT TO CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE SECTION 1542, WHICH SAYS “A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH THE CREDITOR DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE, WHICH, IF KNOWN BY HIM MUST HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR,” AND ANY SIMILAR LAW OF ANY OTHER JURISDICTION.
Indemnity
You agree to indemnify, defend and hold us and our parents, subsidiaries, affiliates, members, officers, directors, employees, consultants, agents, representatives, and service providers harmless from any claim, demand, liability, loss, damages, or cause of action, including attorneys’ fees and costs, made by any third party due to or arising out of your breach of your obligations or representations in these terms, your use of the sites, or infringement by you or other user of the sites using your computer of any intellectual property or any other right of any person or entity. You agree to cooperate as fully as reasonably required in the defense of any claim. We have the right, at our own expense, to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter otherwise subject to indemnification by you, and you will not in any event settle any such matter without our written consent.
Governing law
These terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of North Carolina, United States of America, without giving effect to the principles of conflicts of laws of such state, and are binding on you in the United States and worldwide. Except as otherwise stated in these terms, we make no representation that our sites are appropriate, legal or available for use in other locations. Accordingly, if you choose to use our sites, you agree to do so subject to the internal laws of the State of North Carolina. The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods does not apply to the interpretation or construction of these terms. Except for disputes subject to arbitration as stated below, the state and federal courts of Randolph County, North Carolina, shall be the exclusive forum and venue to resolve disputes arising out of or relating to these terms or the use of or visit to our sites. By using our sites, and thereby agreeing to these terms, you consent to personal jurisdiction and venue in the state and federal courts in Randolph County, North Carolina, with respect to all such disputes. You acknowledge that your breach or potential breach of any of these terms or infringement or potential infringement of our intellectual property rights may cause us irreparable harm for which recovery of money damages would be inadequate. You agree that we will be entitled, in addition to any other remedies available to us, to seek any relief, equitable or otherwise, to prevent or restrain such breach or potential breach.
Arbitration and class action waiver
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT OF THE LAW, AND EXCEPT WITH RESPECT TO SEEKING EQUITABLE REMEDIES, ALL CLAIMS AND DISPUTES ARISING UNDER OR RELATED TO THESE TERMS, INCLUDING THE QUESTION OF ARBITRABILITY, THAT CANNOT BE RESOLVED IN SMALL-CLAIMS COURT MUST BE SUBMITTED TO BINDING ARBITRATION, AND YOU AND WE WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO BRING SUCH CLAIMS BEFORE A COURT OF LAW. You and we must give the other at least 60 days’ notice before initiating arbitration. The dispute will be submitted for binding arbitration to a single arbitrator competent in any issues involved in the dispute. The arbitration will be conducted in accordance with the American Arbitration Association’s International Rules or Complex Commercial Dispute Rules in effect at the time of arbitration, except as they may be modified in these terms or by yours and our mutual consent. Unless otherwise mutually agreed, the seat of the arbitration will be in Asheboro, North Carolina, United States of America, and the arbitration will be conducted in the English language. You acknowledge and agree that you will not raise in connection with, and you waive, any defenses based on venue, inconvenience of forum or lack of personal jurisdiction in any action or suit brought in accordance with these terms. You agree to exclude the application of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods. The arbitral award must be confidential, in writing, state the reasons for the award, and be final and binding on the parties. The award may include an award of costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements. You agree the arbitrators have the authority to award any form of individual relief, including, without limitation, temporary and permanent equitable relief, including injunctions, and other relief available under applicable law. Any court having jurisdiction thereof or having jurisdiction over the relevant party or its assets may enter judgment upon the award. You and we will stipulate that these terms and the obligations and relationships resulting from them are commercial and that the Convention on the Recognition and Enforcement of Foreign Arbitral Awards applies to these terms and to any arbitral award or order resulting from any arbitration conducted under these terms. YOU AND WE AGREE THAT WE MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST EACH OTHER ONLY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION OR PROCEEDING. This section will be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. §§ 1-16. BY AGREEING TO THESE TERMS, EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT THE LAW REQUIRES OTHERWISE, YOU AGREE THAT ANY CLAIMS OR ACTIONS THAT YOU MAY OTHERWISE HAVE AGAINST US UNDER THE LAWS OF ANY JURISDICTION OUTSIDE THE UNITED STATES ARE WAIVED, INCLUDING ANY CLAIMS OR ACTIONS UNDER THE LAWS OF YOUR OWN COUNTRY, AND THAT YOUR SOLE LOCATION AND APPLICABLE LAW FOR ANY DISPUTE IS IN THE UNITED STATES. DEPENDING ON THE CIRCUMSTANCES, THE PROVISIONS ABOVE MAY NOT APPLY TO UK OR EU-BASED CONSUMERS, WHO MAY HAVE THE RIGHT TO MAKE A CLAIM IN THE COURTS OF THE COUNTRY WHERE THEY RESIDE OR THROUGH THE EUROPEAN ONLINE DISPUTE RESOLUTION PLATFORM HTTP://EC.EUROPA.EU/CONSUMERS/ODR/.
International use and export controls
The official website of Central Church, www.central4u.org, is operated from its locations in the United States of America, while certain of our sites may be operated outside the United States. We do not represent that our sites are appropriate or available for use in all jurisdictions, and not all of our products or services discussed on our sites are available in all jurisdictions or appropriate or available for use outside the United States. We prohibit accessing content from within jurisdictions where such content is illegal. If you choose to access our sites from outside the United States, you do so on your own initiative and are solely responsible for complying with applicable local laws, including applicable laws regarding the transmission of data exported from the United States or the country in which you reside. Certain software and services offered on or through our sites may be subject to United States export controls and economic sanctions laws. In particular, but without limitation, software and software services through our sites may not be exported to any U.S.-embargoed countries or anyone on the U.S. Treasury Department’s list of Specially Designated Nationals or the U.S. Department of Commerce Denied Person’s List or Entity List.
Taxes
You are responsible for all taxes, duties, levies, and fees, including any sales, use or withholding taxes, imposed on or in connection with use of our sites by any taxing authority worldwide.
Apple-enabled software applications
We may offer applications that are intended to be operated in connection with products made commercially available by Apple Inc. (“Apple”). The following terms and conditions apply to those applications:
This agreement is between you and us only, and not with Apple, and as between Apple and us, we, and not Apple, are solely responsible for the applications and their content.
You may not use the applications in any manner that is in violation of or inconsistent with the Usage Rules set forth for such applications in, or otherwise in conflict with, the App Store Terms of Service.
Your license to use the applications is limited to a non-transferable license to use the applications on an iOS product that you own or control, as permitted by the Usage Rules set forth in the App Store Terms of Service.
Apple has no obligation to provide any maintenance or support services with respect to the applications.
Apple is not responsible for any product warranties, whether express or implied by law. In the event of any failure of the applications to conform to any applicable warranty, you may notify Apple, and Apple will refund the purchase price for the applications, if any; and, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Apple will have no other warranty obligation with respect to the applications, or any other claims, losses, liabilities, damages, costs or expenses attributable to any failure to conform to any warranty, which will be our sole responsibility, to the extent it cannot be disclaimed under applicable law.
You and we acknowledge that we, not Apple, are responsible for addressing any claims of you or any third party relating to the applications or your possession or use of the applications, including (i) product liability claims; (ii) any claim that the applications fail to conform to any applicable legal or regulatory requirement; and (iii) claims arising under consumer protection or similar legislation.
In the event of any third-party claim that the applications or the end-user’s possession and use of the applications infringes that third party’s intellectual property rights, as between Apple and us, we, not Apple, will be solely responsible for the investigation, defense, settlement and discharge of any such intellectual property infringement claim.
You represent and warrant that (a) you are not located in a country that is subject to a U.S. Government embargo, or that has been designated by the U.S. Government as a “terrorist supporting” country; and (b) you are not listed on any U.S. Government list of prohibited or restricted parties.
You should direct your questions, complaints or claims with respect to the applications to us.
You and we acknowledge and agree that Apple, and Apple’s subsidiaries, are third-party beneficiaries of these Global Terms of Service with respect to the applications, and that, upon your acceptance of the terms and conditions of these Global Terms of Service, Apple will have the right (and will be deemed to have accepted the right) to enforce these Global Terms of Service against you with respect to the applications as a third-party beneficiary.
Other terms
These terms will inure to the benefit of our successors, assigns and licensees. If any provisions of these terms are unlawful, void, or unenforceable for any reason, the other provisions will not be affected and will remain valid and enforceable to the maximum possible extent. These terms will apply in addition to, and will not be superseded by, any other written agreement between you and us in relation to any of our sites, products, or services. Nothing in these terms will be deemed to constitute you or us as the agent or representative of the other or as partners or joint venturers. If you or we are prevented from performing or are unable to perform any obligation under these terms due to any cause beyond the reasonable control of the party invoking this provision, the affected party’s performance will be extended for the period of delay or inability to perform due to such occurrence, but in no event later than 60 days. Our failure to insist on or enforce strict performance of any provision of these terms will not be construed as a waiver of any provision or right. Our Global Privacy Policy, Cookies Policy, and Copyright/Intellectual Property Policy are binding parts of our terms, and together with these terms and any other specific terms or agreements in connection with a particular site constitute the entire agreement between you and us with respect to your use of our sites. Any cause of action you may have with respect to your use of our sites or that is the subject of these terms must be commenced within one (1) year after the claim or cause of action arises. Any provisions of these terms that by their nature should survive termination of these terms will survive.
